Task NO.1: How To Pursue Miss CEO

Chapter 251

Chapter 251 I Will Miss You

Even though she and Pierre were done, Selena wouldn’t let Jameson die in vain, nor would she allow someone to sabotage her. To that end, she had to leave for Springvale and wait for the perfect time to investigate the truth.

“President Fowler trusts you, Miss Yard. I know it.” Linda wanted her to stay. “It doesn’t matter.” Selena patted her shoulder. “I’ll leave everything here to you and Pauline. Video call me if anything happens. I don’t think I can do anything here, so it’s up to you guys.”

“You can count on us, Miss Yard.”

Selena took Juniper and went to the airport without even calling the conference of the day. She had to leave immediately, or John might find out she was missing before she could go.

“Why are we going back all of a sudden, Mommy? I haven’t said goodbye to Joaquin. He must be so sad now that Jameson’s not here anymore.” Juniper started tearing up with every word she said.

Selena hugged her daughter. “You’ll see him when the time comes, Juniper.”

“Miss Yard…” A voice came from behind.

Selena turned back ever so slowly, and she saw a little boy standing behind her. For a split second, she thought she saw Jameson, but she shook her head and realized it was Joaquin, not Jameson. She would have been the happiest woman if the one who showed up was Jameson.

“Jojo!” Juniper trotted up to him. “What brings you here?” Joaquin was as deadpan as usual. “I came to see you two off.”

Selena looked around and saw the edge of a windbreaker peeking out from a corner. That must be Pierre. He must have brought Joaquin over after knowing we would be leaving today. Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

“We’ll be going now, Jojo. I’ll miss you.” Juniper puckered, feeling reluctant to leave.

“Safe trip.” Joaquin was a boy of few words. He didn’t know how to be sentimental during a farewell, though him being there to say goodbye was already sentimental enough.

Selena hunkered down and patted his head. “Take care, Jojo.” Joaquin nodded heavily. “You too, Miss Yard.”

Knowing that Jameson’s death was a heavy blow on everyone, none of them mentioned it. They knew it was hard to process the child’s death, and they didn’t want to tread on that territory.

“We’re going now, Jojo. Bye.” Juniper waved at him.

For the first time in forever, Joaquin hugged Juniper. Then he opened his arms, and Selena hugged him. Just when she thought it was a goodbye hug, Joaquin whispered beside her ears, “Jamie’s still alive.”

All at once, Selena’s eyes widened in shock. “I never told anyone about this, but Jamie and I are telepathic. I know he’s not dead, because I can still feel him.”

Selena looked at him in shock, but he had already changed back into his inscrutable self.

Back when Joaquin was standing before the crystal coffin, he said the body wasn’t Jameson, but John didn’t believe it. He thought he was just a child who knew nothing of death, and he wanted Joaquin to accept the fact that Jameson was dead. He knew nobody would believe him without evidence. After all, telepathy wasn’t believable in the least bit. In the end, he chose to tell that secret to Selena, who most likely would believe him.

Selena nodded at him. “Don’t worry. I got it.”

Joaquin finally smiled. He knew Selena would believe him.
